GanttPV is named for a report that has become almost synonymous with project management, the gantt chart. Most people have used or at least seen them. GanttPV can be used to create gantt charts and export them as web pages. But GanttPV doesn't stop there. Management of a particular project may require the tracking of many different kinds of information. GanttPV can be extended to fill a variety of project management needs.

Schedules
With GanttPV managers can define tasks, task durations, dependencies, start dates, and holidays. Based on this information GanttPV calculates task end dates and creates a gantt chart that can be used to communicate when project tasks should be completed.

Task Assignments
GanttPV can help managers think through task assignments by allowing the manager to identify resources and assign resources to tasks on multiple projects. It allocates hours to each assigned resource and calculates summary totals by Task, by Resource, and by Day and Week.

Follow Up
GanttPV helps managers to identify and prioritize all of the follow up activities necessary to keep multiple projects moving forward. (See follow up management.)

Project Monitoring
GanttPV can be used to monitor the team's productivity and expenses. It can calculate the earned value hours and expense outlook by week. It also calculates the critical path including free float and total float for each task.
